Feed your selfie habitJudging selfies has become something of a habit for Internet users. Who does it better, Kim or Taylor? Even devoted selfie fans, however, will be overwhelmed by Selfeed, a website that shows every selfie posted on Instagram with the #selfie hashtag in real time.
Created by artists Tyler Madsen, Erik Carter, and Jillian Mayer, the site presents an endless deluge of self-portraits, each one on the screen for less than a second. Certain trends emerge: a downward angle, pursed lips. But more than anything, Selfeed is a pure flood of humanity.
'We created it because we wanted it to exist,' the artists told us. 'We enjoy the constant flow of selfies and find it incredibly hypnotic and fascinating.' The site is 'supposed to exist neutrally,' they explain. A hot-or-not, selfie-rating version would no doubt be popular, but Selfeed is about inspiration. It creates a kind of communal global, selfie that goes beyond any one person.
'Most of the selfies that are aggregated are self-portraits with one singular figure,' the artists say. 'On Selfeed, these figures exist alone, but together.' What better way to connect with the world than taking a selfie and joining the feed?
